Shooting on an abbreviated final season of "House of Cards' resumes next month without its disgraced star, Kevin Spacey.

The sixth and final season of the Netflix series will consist of eight episodes, five fewer than previous years, according to Variety.

The new episodes will focus on Robin Wright's character, Claire Underwood, and Spacey will not be involved, as Netflix announced last month.

"We were really excited we could get to an agreement" to provide "closure of the show for fans," said Netfliix's Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos, speaking Monday at UBS's Global Media and Communications Conference in New York.

Sarandos said he was gratified to have reached the deal for the team of 370 people who directly work on the show, as well as the 2,000 people in Baltimore, who have jobs working on the shoot in that city.

Spacey faces dozens of allegations of sexual assault or misconduct with investigations underway in London and Nantucket.
